This seems to work:

Which would be the same as:
<xsl:template match="pets/animal[normalize-space(species) = 'fish']"/>
... which might be easier for someone maintaining the stylesheet to understand.
Of course the processor may optimize both expressions to be the same
executing code, but from a maintenance perspective, keeping
expressions simpler would have more benefit.
I hope this is helpful.
